Quick Overview:

‘Taylor’ is an upright narrow columnar eastern red cedar that typically grows to 15-20′ tall but to only 3-4′ feet wide. Silvery blue-green foliage is attractive throughout the growing season. Foliage may take on some bronze tones in winter. ‘Taylor’ was reportedly discovered in Taylor, Nebraska as a chance seedling and was released in 1992 to the nursery trade by the Nebraska Statewide Arboretum. Release information does not list a sex for this cultivar but it is believed to be male.  (Courtesy of Missouri Botanical Garden Plant Finder)
